Wilderness Camping & Campfire Cooking!

Wilderness camping in Alaska! We got dropped off by the Alaska State Railroad in the middle of nowhere. All I see is a mile marker 238.6, which I nervously typed in my last text home, in case of a “missing hikers” bulletin). No worries, our friend knew where he was. See the ridge lines and moose droppings?

On this backpacking and camping trip, the hiking poles–and our family sauces “Recipes-in-a-Bottle” ™–came in handy: Soy Ginger Vidalia (You Saucy Think), Asian BBQ Teriyaki (Wild Wild East) and Sweet Chili Peach (My Sweet Hottie). Hooray for easy, fast & healthy meals around a campfire and on the road! We certainly had plenty of sardines, crackers and trail mix days (which I don’t mind) but there’s nothing like resting the feet and enjoying a hot meal cooked over fire…
